Bond County Property Tax Records
Property taxes in Bond County are paid in arrears. The bill you pay this year covers the prior year's assessment. Under 35 ILCS 200/, the lien date is January 1. That date sets who owns the parcel and what it is worth for tax purposes. Tax bills split the total owed among each taxing district that covers the parcel. Schools, the county, road districts, and local municipalities in Bond County all get a share of the bill. The rate depends on where the parcel sits within the county.
A parcel in Greenville may carry a different total tax rate than one in a rural township. That gap comes from the mix of taxing bodies that overlap each area. Knowing how those rates stack up is helpful when reading your Bond County property records. The assessor sets the value. The County Treasurer collects the tax. If you have questions about how much you owe or when a payment is due, the Treasurer handles that side. For questions about the assessed value itself, the Supervisor of Assessments at 206 W. Main Street in Greenville is where to go.
Note: Bond County tax bills typically go out in the spring with two installment due dates later in the year.
